Enjoy Thanksgiving and lose weight while feasting

With Thanksgiving right around the corner I bet you are worried  about having to surrender  to automatically gaining LOADS of body fat this holiday season.

Well, it doesn’t have to be this way!

How, you ask?  Well there is a scientifically proven way to manipulate your hormonal response to these holiday feasts to actually get LEANER this holiday season and INCREASE your metabolic rate (if you follow some specific techniques…otherwise, you’ll just gain fat like usual). Read more…

This concept is the entire basis of my colleague and mentor Joel Marion’s Cheat Your Way Thin System – Holiday Edition

For Thanksgiving and the rest of this holiday season, the truth is that you DON’T have to give up your desserts, your glorious stuffing and mashed potatoes, your delicious pumpkin pie and ice cream, your holiday egg nog, and all of the other party treats you’ll be tempted with…

There is no need to but yourself through such torture.

However, it’s vitally important that you know EXACTLY how to manage this aspect of overeating on the specific days that you have gatherings (along with the proper way to combine this with strategic exercise) during this holiday season to actually give you an advantage in firing up your metabolism and maximizing the correct hormones to get you LEANER instead of fatter during this holiday season.

Make sure to read the page below ASAP, because Joel has some killer bonuses and coaching sessions available for you if you take action on the first day of this launch (that’s today!)

Fire up your metabolism and get LEANER by strategic feasting

And enjoy that turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, and pumpkin pie! I know I will!

Leptin: Weight loss’s Super Hormone

leptin super dietImagine if you could look like the girl in the picture while eating a sandwich like that.  Well you can if you know how to manage your leptin levels.

My what levels?

You probably haven’t heard about leptin since it was just discovered about 20 years ago. The word leptin comes from the greek word leptos which means “thin”.   This is probably the most important hormone when it comes to weight loss.

Some of leptin’s funtions are:

1.  Stimulate appetite represents.

2. Elevate body temperature to increase energy expenditure.

3. Suppress feeding stilmulantes.

Leptin is also called the anti-starvation hormone.  Long before the existence of supermarkets and grocery stores our ancestors had to go days on a low calorie diet until they managed to find food.  During these days their body had to save up all the energy it could, so guess who was in charge of this… you got it… good old leptin.

When our body starts receiving little food leptin levels start to drop sending a message to the brain that it needs to save up energy (translation: store fat).  When leptin levels rise after a big meal the brain receives a message that says burn fat we have energy to spare.

This is the reason why we have the “yo-yo” effect.  After long periods of diet your body just gets used to saving energy. Once you stop your diet and begin to eat normally again, your brain just jumps at the chance of storing fat, just in case another long low calorie period is coming up.  This is why you end up gaining more wait than you lost during your diet.

So what is the solution?

With all the information above the solution becomes quite obvious.  We have to vary our calorie intake.  That is we have to treat ourselves at least once a week to keep leptin levels high.

I told you before it takes a week for leptin levels to drop around 50%. Well it only takes around 12 to 24 hours to bring the back up.  This means we have to cheat or treat ourselves once a week during our diet to keep a good weight loss environment going.

This treat day has to have pizza, hamburgers, ice cream, cake, etc.  Leptin has a great relationship with carbs.  Studies have shown that over eating with just protein wont do the trick… you need carbs.  Yes,  the same carbs people have been demonizing for years.  That is why you shouldn’t take them away from your diet.

Remember to take time away from your diet once a week.  It will help you both mentally and physically.

Top 5 easy to implement Weight loss tips

I got 5 weight loss tips that should help you lose a couple pounds if you stick to them.  That fact that you may not be doing one of these might be the reason why you packed on those extra couple of pounds.

The tips I’m about to give are for beginners as well as advanced readers.

1) No liquid calories (with the exception of a post-workout drink).

Most people think that when it comes to weight loss they have to watch what they eat for the most part.  What they take for granted is the fact that the liquids they drink are also packed with sugars and calories that contribute to the jiggly in our bellys.  Get rid of all the juices, the sodas, and the sports drinks. Liquid sugar is the last thing you need when you are trying to lose weight.

Limit your alcohol to a drink or two when you go out.  Alcohol is packed with empty calories.  Those are the ones that have no nutritional value and only get you fat.

2) No fast food.

Avoid fast food restaurants at all cost.  They belong to the dark side of weight loss.  Avoid McDonalds, Taco Bell, Burguer King, etc. Don’t even eat their salads or the other “healthy” things they say they have.  Remember this:

All they care about is your money not your health.

In order for them to make money they offer you a cheap, quick, and easy to make meals.  All that just adds up to cheap food ingredients with poor quality protein that is bad for your health. If you have ever been to the grocery store you know how expensive good protein is.  So for 5 bucks don’t expect to get grass fed beef.

It takes time to learn to eat properly.  You will have to plan, shop and prepare meals ahead of time.  You will have to clean, cut and prepare your food.  I know you are a busy person, but a couple minutes a week to invest in your health is worth it.  Weight loss is not easy.

The good thing about doing all of this is food will taste and feel a whole lot better.  Believe me eating healthy will change the way you feel about yourself and others.

Make one small improvement to your nutrition everyday.

3) Eat more fruits and vegetables.

This has to do a little with the last tip. If you are eating 2 servings per day, then go up to 4 servings per day by the end of the week. You can’t have enough of these two.  The colors in fruits and vegetables mean they have tons of different nutrients that will help you fight diseases, lose weight and keep you feeling young and healthy. Try to increase your taking up to 10 servings per week

The more fiber they have the better.  Fiber helps digestions and slows down the sugar entrance into the blood stream.  Which in turn avoids insulin spikes which is good for weight loss.

4) Eat nuts

Try eating natural or dry roasted nuts.  The others are usually roasted in oils (possibly trans fats). Eat around an oz a day (half in the moring and the other in the afternoon.

I know nut have tons of fats, but don’t worry they are good fats.  They will help you feel full and avoid any cravings that you might get.

5) Be consistent with your workouts.

Plan your workouts and make sure they are efficient and effective.  Avoid having to testing things out on your own and go with something that is proven like this training system CLICK HERE to read more.

I don’t care at what time you train, be it morning, noon or late afternoon, just train consistently.

6) BONUS TIP: Go for a walk after lunch or dinner (or anytime you eat a big meal). Research shows this will help you control your cholesterol and triglycerides, plus any movement is better than sitting around watching the TV and snacking.

Improve your lifestyle everyday.

This is a great question considering all the different types of programs there are out there. All weight loss programs are not created equally; some will have a much higher rate of success than others.

Knowing exactly what to look for when searching for weight loss exercise programs will help enable you to make a decision that will get you the results you’re looking for.

First, if you’re like many people, you probably want a free weight loss program. The thing to keep in mind though is that these are free for a reason. They are targeted towards the general public and as such, give such broad suggestions that while it may work for one person, it will not work for you. For example, if you are a 200 pound man and the free weight loss programs you are finding are more geared towards a 140 pound woman; you can see why this would obviously be problematic.

The first thing to ask yourself when you see a weight loss diet program is how personalized is it. I’m sure you’ve heard the saying that “General programs produce general results,” which is very true. The more personalized and targeted the solution is to your individual situation, the higher your chance of consistent weight loss.

Next, ask whether it allows for enough calories to keep you from completely starving. While it may be tempting to try a very low calorie approach to get the weight loss process over and done with, usually these end up backfiring on you, leaving you gaining more weight back after you go off them than you had when you first started. Your goal is to burn the fat, not starve the fat and the majority of weight loss programs force your metabolism to shut down which leads to muscle loss – a doubled edged sword contributing to greater fat storage on your body.

Another component that you’ll want to factor in is exercise. A good weight loss exercise program will combine both cardiovascular training along with weight training. Those weight loss exercise programs that have you doing hours of cardio on end are not going to be all that beneficial at retaining your lean muscle tissue mass, nor time efficiency. Since, your lean muscle tissue is what keeps your metabolism the highest; it’s what you really want to focus on the most. Neglecting this aspect of your workout is a huge mistake and does not maximize the 24 hours in a day you have to burn fat.

Finally, keep in mind that any weight loss program you go on you should be maintainable in the long run. A program that you’re only able to maintain in the very short term is likely to not be overly beneficial as if lifestyle changes are not made with regards to how you’re eating; chances are that the weight will be back at some point in the near future. Your ultimate goal is a lifestyle change, not a temporary change.
